What is Hyper

Parenting??

Definition.

Hyper Parenting.

We use "hyper-parenting" to describe a style of child-rearing that has - perhaps inadvertently -- become the prescribed way to raise children in middle and upper middle class families. Hyper-Parenting, and its logical consequence - over-scheduled families- have evolved from the belief that within every parent is the power -- and obligation -- to craft the perfect childhood for our kids - one that will guarantee a successful adulthood in the impossibly competitive new e-world.
